Lu Su arched his hand and said, "Back to the lord, now that Yuzhang County has all fallen into the hands of the lord, the defense of the Jingzhou army in Changsha County must also be established." The 3,000 archers under General Cao Xing played little role in the siege, and I let him stay on the border to fortify. ”

"Changsha... Huang Zhong..."Jiang Zhuo frowned, "Huang Zhong is a fierce general, with General Cao's strength, I'm afraid it won't have much deterrent effect on Huang Zhong..."

Just kidding, Huang Zhong is a bull, but as soon as he joins Liu Bei's command, he can become a saint-level boss. The current strength is also at the peak of the king level.

"Don't worry, my lord, as long as General Cao can cautiously defend the city in Yichun County, it will not be a problem to block the enemy army. The only thing to worry about is that the border area between the two counties is full of bandits, and the people are uncertain and may have hidden worries. ”

Jiang Zhuo nodded, "That's it, I'll leave this matter to you to worry about after taking the entire territory of Yuzhang." The generals and troops under the command of Benhou are not sufficient, and I am afraid that the naval army under your command will stay in Yuzhang County to support me for a while. ”

"I don't dare to ask for ears if I want to!" Lu Su is duty-bound.

Then the two entered the tent, opened the map and studied. There is nothing to say about the Shangyu City of Zhenrong, there is a fortified city, and the city is full of camp believers, and there is no other way than to storm it.

It's Zhu Hao's Yongxiu, it looks like it can be designed a little. Of course, if Zhu Hao can surrender directly, then maybe he can still be melted.

"It's been two days since the letter of surrender was sent, and it is estimated that they will not surrender."

Jiang Zhuo touched his chin, to be honest, if it weren't for the existence of Zhenrong who would always contain his forces, he really didn't want to gnaw on the turtle shell of the city. Just look at the defenses of Haidun City and Jiaoqiu City, if the former didn't have Leng Rou's backhand, and the latter didn't have Jiang Zhuo's surprise attack hidden, he wouldn't have been able to take it at all.

Now that Zhenrong is on guard, there are still 20,000 militiamen, 30,000 NPC resident believers, and 100,000 camp players in the city. If he really wants to fight, Jiang Zhuo feels that even if he comes out, he will have to fight for several days.

"My lord, why don't you consider attacking from the water?"

"Waterways?" Jiang Zhuo was stunned for a moment, Shangyu City was located in a natural inlet in Xiushui, surrounded by water on three sides. However, the distance between the city wall and the water repair is more than 100 meters, and the section of the river near the city is a muddy river beach that cannot dock a hundred stone boats, and it is impossible to attack by water...

If it weren't for Gan Ning who said this, Jiang Zhuo would have felt that the other party was teasing him.

Gan Ning is estimated to be the general of the No. 1 Naval Army in the whole service, and there should be basically nothing that he can't solve from the water.

"That's right. "Gan Ning was obviously prepared, this guy's utilitarianism is not weak, and he has a good plan in his heart not to tell the coach Lu Su, he has to wait for Jiang Zhuo to come.

But Jiang Zhuo was not upset, and it was only three days since Gan Ning came over. I believe that if you wait a little longer, Lu Su, a good and honest person, will be able to influence him... After all, he is a legendary good man, and no matter how big the contradiction is, it can be alleviated in his hands.

"The last general went to observe by boat that the land outside the three walls of the east, west and south of the city was soft, and there were no large equipment at the head of the city. We can slightly remodel the warship and turn it into a dredger.

Dig deep into the silt at the inlet, and then dig a canal step by step to divert the water to the bottom of the city to soak the foundation of the city wall. When the foundation is soft and sinking, the city wall cannot bear its own weight, and it is easy to collapse! ”

Gan Ning is an expert in this area, and he thinks that if the river beach can be dug up, then the proposal is feasible.

Moreover, there are no moats on the east, west and south sides of Shangyu City, after all, it is surrounded by water on three sides, and it is redundant to build a moat. The presence of a moat will erode the foundation, so when you build it, you have to make a cushion at the bottom, which is a lot of money.

The only trouble is that digging a canal is not a trivial matter. Even if the defenders of the city don't attack, it's a small project that will take at least a day.

But how could the defenders of the city not attack? Brave the rain of arrows to dig a ditch, and I don't know how many people will die.

"Lord, leave this matter to the last general, right?" Gan Ning saw Jiang Zhuo's worries and directly took the initiative to fight. You must know that the 3,000 men and horses under his command are all his own troops, and if they are replaced by other generals, they don't know how much to treasure their own troops. I can't wait for all the deadly tasks to be handed over to someone else.

"It's fine." Gan Ning wanted to perform, so Jiang Zhuo gave him a chance, "Zijing, allocate another 2,000 people to General Gan, and General Gan will be in charge of Shangyu City." ”

"Whoa!" Lu Su's indifferent appearance made Gan Ning a little embarrassed, and in the previous counterinsurgency battle, he actually had a lot of complaints about Lu Su. In the process of counterinsurgency, Lu Su rarely let Gan Ning charge into battle.

Ke Lu Su and Cao Xing are both long-range combat, and Gan Ning is a fierce general in close combat. Gan Ning felt that Lu Su was worried that he would make meritorious service as soon as he came, which would affect Lu Su's status. In fact, Lu Su was just worried that Gan Ning was not at ease, and many thief leaders would be sent to do difficult tasks after surrendering to Cheng, consuming their bandits, lest the thief leaders have too many ideas of self-respect.

Although Gan Ning is not famous, he is also a water thief after all. Lu Su didn't let the Ganning Department fight frequently, just for the sake of Ganning's heart.

Now that Gan Ning has spent two days together, he has probably figured out the character of Lu Su, a good old man, and his behavior just now is also testing whether Lu Su is really honest or fake. Gan Ning was very satisfied with the results of the trial, but he was a little embarrassed.

Through this behavior, Lu Su also understood that Gan Ning was sincere and would not shirk in order to preserve his strength, so he also put his mind at ease. I believe that the two can cooperate better in the future and defend the western gateway of Yangzhou for Jiang Zhuo.

You must know that Yuzhang County is facing pressure from Qichun County, Changsha County and Jiangxia County. If the Jingzhou army came to attack Yangzhou, Yuzhang County would basically be their first target.

After all, if the three counties are attacked at the same time, the defenders of Yuzhang County don't know where to support if they want to support.

Gan Ning withdrew from the camp to carry out the task he was going to come, while Jiang Zhuo looked at Lu Su, "Zijing, in the future, Gongtai and Zibu will be in charge of civil affairs, but Benhou on the military side also lacks a person who takes care of everything." You need to know where you stand now and be prepared for that. ”

Jiang Zhuo will definitely set up the position of Metropolitan Governor of the Three Armies, after all, Jiang Zhuo can also be thrown to NPCs to deal with. But military affairs are too important, and the important military position Jiang Zhuo will not be handed over to the player to do, but he can't do it himself, so a trustworthy NPC military general is a must.

Jiang Zhuo's subordinates are not short of people who can take charge of themselves, but Liao Hua's reckless background is not able to convince the public, Yu Fan's personality is too calm to take into account both offense and defense, and Gan Ning is a little brave and ruthless, all of which have some shortcomings.

Only Lu Su, who is in a position similar to the position of prime minister of the three armies, which is easy to offend people, should be able to play with ease.
